Femi Otedola, Farouk Lawan Bribery Conundrum- The Shame Of A Nation In Need Of Water-bomber Cleansing

By Olapadae Agoro

The instant shameless parade of bribery throw about conundrum by those in high positions of political and economic power in particular by Femi Otedola, Chairman of Zenon oil and gas and Farouk Lawan,  Chairman House of Representatives  Ad –hoc Committee that of very recent successfully probed the fuel subsidy scam is a clear indication that the nation is terribly and torridly held in the rough and firm grip of retardation by maggots in human skin and destroyers of human benefitting values.

That Femi Otedola even had the audacity to own up giving Lawan US$500,000 bribe money and as well US$120000 to Mr. Boniface Emenalo the secretary of Lawan led Ad-Hoc Committee no doubt raised dusts of reasonable questions to ask that from which Bank/s  in Nigeria Otedola withdrew that high value sum of money, when he withdrew the money, and where he kept that type of  whooping sum of money before it was dispensed to the duo of Lawan and Emenalo.

If per chance Femi did not withdraw the US$ 612000 from any Bank in Nigeria but had that type of foreign currency in his private vault and going by the fact that the nation has so many of Femi’s type of hopeless ‘Private Individuals Walk About Banks’ running to reckless thousands of them, will explain why the Naira value had kept falling on weekly trading basis from injection of out of Central Bank of Nigeria control non bankable foreign currencies leaving the Naira always free falling and reeling currently to its lowest level of 1 US dollar to Naira 162.00 with devastating effects on the nation’s economy.

Definitely the US$612000 Femi’s bribe money was not all he would have had there and then in his Private Individuals Walk About Bank. His was the revelation of the money kept out of the normal system by enemies of progress meant solely to keep the nation’s economy wheel cart ever unbalance.          

Irrespective of where Femi got his bribe money from, commonsense must however dictate to discerning minds that the US$ 620000 bribe money given to Lawan and Emenalo could not have meant to have effects on the fuel subsidy probe already concluded and positively now in the public domain than to cause distraction from the real core issue of Naira1.7 trillion fuel subsidy scam now be - plaguing the conscience of the nation.

With dusts recently raised by the House of Representatives of another Naira 2.8 trillion diversion discovery from the PTDF account through signature bonuses, one need tell those ready and willing to listen to the truth of the matter to see this Femi Otedola tricksters game plan on Farouk Lawan as a conspiracy of the contumacious sponsors of larceny in the oil industry simply designed to pull the wool over reality.     

The shameless key players in the odorous stealing and thieving pervading the nation’s oil industry must be told in the clear language they can understand that there can be found no hiding place for them in the thunder storm in the tea cup of the US$ 612000 bribery scandal kite they are trying to fly.

The nation’s economic vandals, joy evaporators, cancerous marauders and their foreign co-travelers must be told the fact that the game is up.

It becomes also altruistically a good reasoning point and pertinent fact of life for one even wonder aloud what magnet is still holding the Petroleum Minister Deziani Alison –Madueke on her seat, despite the odium oozing out of her ministry.

Game of commonsense offers us the rare opportunity to know that Nigeria will need no good luck at this our particular parlous state than President Goodluck Jonathan becoming a man capable taking worthwhile decisions the type great leaders are known with shoving this woman aside now and with her the imported, outdated and useless 25 Tokunbo carcasses in his cabinet, to prevent us from continuing to suffer heavy weight pains from the type of nuisance value administrators we have running the affairs of our dear country.
